Update a dotnet dll to work in max2024

Submitted by zahid hasan on Sun, 2023-11-19 05:11

Hi,

I need the Hitchhiker.dll made by Pete Addington (lonerobot) to work with updated 3ds max version like 2024. It is working fine in 2020. I tried to reach Pete for couple of month but failed.
The script is available in this forum from 2010 may be. It is a thumbnail generator script for images files in a folder name supplied. I will pay if somebody can help me out. Will share details if you are interested.The issue is dotnet version related.

if LoneRobot didn't come back , hard to update for new version

max changed some core interface at 2022 , lower .net plugin with them won't run on newer LoneRobot has gone a long time , if there was no source script , the only way was to decompile dll and recompile it after modified ,but there is only a small chance to success ， it may couldn't recompile or couldn't run

you may search for another tool for your needing

the reason of error likes below , there's need a new version plugin or changed interfaces to assembly

it is impossible

DLL is a library that has been encoded. How can I open its source code?

Decryptor

Some app can decrypt the dll. Dont know if the code is modifiable. I attached a decrypted screenshot. Btw, Can you make a new dll with similar functionality? they are not many.
